                                The Five People You Meet in Heaven: Assignment #1

            The Book  The Five People You Meet in Heaven is a very diverse story. It's diverse in its characters and problems but amazingly they're all connected. The quote "That there are no random acts. That we are all connected. That you can no more separate one life from another than you can separate a breeze from the wind." To me that really goes with the stories in the book that Eddie learned and to me it means whatever you do in life it affects people. On Earth our choices we make have an impact on the people around us or even people you don't know. I think the big picture is we are literally all connected through what we say and do. Which gives just a simple action a lot of responsibility. I think it's important to realize that anything you do can affect or even change a person's life. Even when you make a mistake that you think nothing good can result from it you never know sometimes that one thing teaches other people not to make the same bad decision. Or even when you make a simple choice it might affect someone in a huge way. Ultimately everything you do has a purpose in itself and on the life of someone else.
